Forms authentication/mulitple web projects

[Molly J. Fagan]

Hello--

I'm using forms authentication and have 2 web projects located under
the same root directory. In the web.config of the second project, I
have

<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name=".ASPXAUTH" loginUrl="../BHUser/login.aspx" />
</authentication>

which points to the login.aspx located in the startup project.

In testing, if a user pulls up a page in the second project without
logging in, they are directed to the login page but continue to be
redirected to the login page even when using a valid user name and
password.

I am not sure what to put in to correct this or where to put it. Any
help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

2 web projects are separate web applications. They can't share
authentication information. You need to come up with your own way to
authenticate users accross web apps. One way to do it is to store logged in
users in a database and have both application access it.

Thanks for responding. This is the case even when the 2 projects are
in the same solution?
